Daily Ag Direction 8/22/25
Funds were buyers yesterday, as bean oil rallied on anticipated EPA ruling on small refinery exemptions and corn and wheat followed suit. Corn was aided by strong new crop export sales numbers and wheat by the speculation of China shopping SRW. That bid under the market faded into this morning, as grains opened mixed with wheat trending slightly lower, corn even, and beans tying to hold slight gains. We'll see how the week closes out as "Pro" Farmer tour concludes and publishes results this afternoon. CFTC and Cattle on Feed numbers due out this afternoon as well.
